Structural modeling of dynamic polymer networks
… networks, which crosslink via the formation of reversible bonds, in particular have great potential as stimuli responsive, mechanically tunable, and self-healing materials. Many important emergent properties of these materials, such as mechanical strength, are mediated by their underlying …

A Bio-Inspired Self-Healing Polymer System for Sustainable Plastics
… to the rocks under water by forming strong reversible bonds with their environment. Poly[(3,4-dihydroxystyrene)-co-styrene)] (P[3,4-DHS-S]) is a synthetic polymer mimic of DOPA with chemical structure similar to polystyrene (PS) with a potential self-healing mechanism. This intrinsic …

Complex mechanical design of bio-inspired model transient network hydrogels
… dissipation through the dissociation of the reversible bonds. However, there is a wide variety of transient interactions to choose from, varying widely in binding strength, kinetics, specificity, and stoichiometry of the groups that form the association. More research needs to be done to …

Investigating non-equilibrium phenomena in active matter systems
… effective friction induced by the breaking of reversible bonds between the surface of the particle and the substrate. I will then create gradients in the density of such binding sites and by placing the magnetic particle on a stochastic, random walk the differences in effective friction will …
